Somewhere, very near you, is a tiny being, just going about their day.
They don’t care about you, or me, nor any of our worries.
And I find so much comfort in that 💚🐌

Police killed nearly 100 people a month in 2022. There were only 12 days police didn’t kill someone. The majority of killings took place in scenarios where no crime was alleged or where police were called for nonviolent offenses or mental health checks. truthout.org/articles/police…

Keenan Anderson—a 31-year-old high school teacher & father—stopped LA police for help after an accident. They instead cuffed him, pinned him, & tased him repeatedly as he begged them to stop.
Keenan died of cardiac arrest from excessive tasing.
His crime—asking police for help.

“Queer' not as being about who you're having sex with (that can be a dimension of it); but 'queer' as being about the self that is at odds with everything around it and that has to invent and create and find a place to speak and to thrive and to live.”

Urgency culture has us believe it's "selfless" to be on call, always available 24/7. It's actually a form of self neglect. time away is needed. Boundaries are needed. so many of us are exhausted, burnt out, or in chronic pain because our bodies...👇
